If you’re a female aged 35 yrs or older, you may have a sneaking suspicion that your hormones are changing and are creating havoc in your life.
Periods may have become a little less predictable, longer or shorter cycles and heavier or lighter bleeds.
Recently you have noticed an increasing amount of anxiety, bloating, headaches and unexplained tiredness. Perhaps even hot flushes and night sweats. Not to mention aches and pains which seem to have come out of nowhere.
And alarmingly, you may also be experiencing stubborn weight gain and feeling more irritable or emotional of late.
Most women are familiar with Menopause, the time of life when periods cease. Once a woman has not had a period for 12 months she is technically in Menopause. This creates a hormonal deficiency of progesterone which the body no longer makes and a huge reduction in estrogen (down to 40%) and testosterone.
However, in the 10+ years in the lead up to Menopause the female body undergoes a lot of hormonal upheaveal. There are months when ovulation does not occur and this creates a complete deficiency of progesterone which has a vital role in creating not only fertility but also in being a calming hormone with anti-inflammatory effects, body composition improving effects (ie it helps to reduce pain and keep your weight stable).
